CP 239 Disclosure documents: Update to ASIC instruments and guidance

Released 17 September 2015. Comments due 27 November 2015.

This consultation paper seeks feedback on our proposals to make new legislative instruments relating to Ch 6D of the Corporations Act 2001 (Corporations Act). It also seeks feedback on our proposals to remake or revoke a number of class orders relating to Ch 6D before they expire under the Legislative Instruments Act 2003 (Legislative Instruments Act).

In addition, this consultation paper seeks feedback on our proposals to consolidate—and, in relation to certain discrete issues, update—our Ch 6D regulatory guidance, including our proposal to issue a new regulatory guide, draft Regulatory Guide 000 Offering securities under a disclosure document (draft RG 000).
